And the French rejoiced, for now they had captured Japan and were about to get rich off of Sony and Mitusbishi. The French dumped all of the sake in Japan into the harbour, for it tasted like sweaty gym socks. Then they distributed Moet et Chandon. The Japanese nodded in approval. Cause if Moet is good enough for Queen, tis good enough for anyone.
Now there was an issue of cultural exchange. The Japanese tried the fatted duck liver stuff that the French are so very fond of, and they almost puked. Very few French would even try sushi; who wanted to eat raw fish? But those who did try it were hooked. Sushi is good; duck liver is not. Period.
